The fresh search for Madeleine McCann has ended after investigators spent three days in areas near to where the three-year-old disappeared 18 years ago in Portugal. German investigators left the search area at about 17:15 local time before Portuguese counterparts then removed the outer cordon from the site.

LISBON (Reuters) -Portuguese and German police were on Thursday wrapping up their search in Portugal's southern Algarve region for evidence related to the disappearance of British toddler Madeleine McCann 18 years ago.

A new search relating to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann took place this week (June 3 to June 5), close to where she went missing in Praia da Luz 18 years ago.
